Board of Directors
The YRDFA Board of Directors are from Yukon River communities and represent
the various fishing districts.
The Board forms a thirty (30) member delegation representative of the
diverse users of salmon in the Yukon River drainage. Salmon users in the
drainage include those under the category of subsistence user, commercial
user / small processor, sportfish user and large processor.
Board members are nominated and then YRDFA members vote to elect a board
member for their district. To make decisions that affect the salmon fishery,
YRDFA Board of Directors work by consensus.
